2 Basessaloniika 2
1 Kaakano abooluganda, ku by’okukomawo kwa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, era n’okukuŋŋaanyizibwa okumusisinkana, tubasaba
As to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our being gathered to meet him, we beg you, friends,
2 muleme okweraliikirira wadde emitima okubeewanika newaakubadde olw’omwoyo, newaakubadde olw’ekigambo wadde olw’ebbaluwa, ebirabika ng’ebivudde gye tuli, nga biranga nti olunaku lwa Mukama lutuuse.
not lightly to let your minds become unsettled or disturbed by any revelation, or by any message or letter purporting to come from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is come.
3 Omuntu yenna tabalimbalimbanga mu ngeri yonna; kubanga okuggyako ng’obujeemu busoose okujja, n’omuntu oli ow’obujeemu, omwana w’okuzikirira ng’amaze okulabisibwa,
Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way. For it will not come before the final rebellion against God, when lawlessness is revealed in human form, headed for destruction.
4 oyo alivvoola Katonda ne yeegulumiza okusinga ebintu byonna nga yeeyita katonda oba ekissibwamu ekitiibwa atuule mu yeekaalu ya Katonda omwo nga yeefuula okuba Katonda.
He is the adversary of everything that is spoken of as a god or as an object of worship, enthroning himself in God”s Temple claiming to be God!
5 Temujjukira ng’ebyo nabibategeeza bwe nnali nammwe?
Don’t you remember how, when I was with you, I used to speak to you of all this?
6 Era ekikyamuziyizza mukimanyi kubanga tagenda kujja okutuusa ng’ekiseera kye kituuse.
And you know now what the restraining influence is which prevents his appearing before his appointed time.
7 Kubanga ekyama ky’obujeemu kyatandika dda okukola, naye ye yennyini tagenda kujja okutuusa oyo amuziyiza lw’aliva mu kkubo.
Wickedness, indeed, is already at work in secret, but only until he who at present restrains it is removed out of the way.
8 Olwo omuntu ow’obujeemu alyoke alabisibwe, Mukama waffe Yesu gw’alimalawo n’omukka ogw’omu kamwa ke n’amuzikiriza n’okulabisibwa kw’okujja kwe.
Then the lawless person will be revealed, but the Lord Jesus will destroy him with the breath of his mouth, annihilate him by the splendour of his coming.
9 Omuntu oyo alijjira mu maanyi ga Setaani gonna n’akola obubonero n’eby’amagero, eby’obulimba,
When the lawless person comes, there will be great activity on the part of Satan, in the form of all kinds of deceptive miracles, signs, and marvels, as well as of wicked attempts to delude –
10 era n’obulimba obwa buli ngeri obw’obutali butuukirivu eri abo abazikirizibwa, kubanga bagaana okukkiriza amazima okulokolebwa.
to the ruin of those who are on the path to destruction, because they have never received and loved the truth to their own salvation.
11 Katonda kyava abawaayo eri okubuzibwabuzibwa okw’amaanyi bakkirize eby’obulimba.
That is why God places them under the influence of a delusion, to cause them to believe a lie;
12 Era bonna balyoke basalirwe omusango olw’okukkiriza obulimba, ne bagaana amazima ne basanyukira okukola ebitali bya butuukirivu.
so that sentence may be passed on all those who refuse to believe the truth, but delight in wickedness.
13 Naye kitugwanidde okwebazanga Katonda ennaku zonna ku lwammwe, abooluganda abaagalwa mu Mukama waffe, kubanga Katonda yabalondera obulokozi okuva ku lubereberye, ng’abatukuza olw’okukola kw’Omwoyo n’okukkiriza amazima,
But, friends, whom the Lord loves, it is our duty always to thank God about you, for, from the first, God chose you for salvation through the purifying influence of the Spirit, and your belief in the truth.
14 ge yabayitira ng’ayita mu Njiri yaffe mulyoke mufune ekitiibwa kya Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo.
To this you were called by the good news which we brought you, to attain to the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Noolwekyo abooluganda, munywererenga ku ebyo bye twabayigiriza mu bbaluwa zaffe oba mu bigambo byaffe.
Stand firm then, friends, and hold fast to the truths that we taught you, whether by word or by letter.
16 Kale Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo yennyini, ne Katonda Kitaffe eyatwagala n’atuwa essanyu n’essuubi eddungi olw’ekisa kye, (aiōnios g166)
And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and, in his loving kindness, gave us unfailing consolation and good ground for hope, (aiōnios g166)
17 abazzeemu amaanyi, era abanywezenga mu buli kye mukola ne mu buli kigambo ekirungi.
console your hearts, and strengthen you to do and to say all that is right.
